I just checked them out via email (I'm just a hop west of Boston).  I
gave them my phone #, address, and told they they could check out my
eligibility.

I got an almost immediate response, and they ensure me service
availability should be no more than a day, with downtime no longer
than that required for me to set up PPPoE, which shouldn't be long,
considering I already have a working PPPoE config with Verizon.  Maybe
just a minor reconfig?

As far as use, they don't care so long as the government doesn't say
it's illegal.  Cool.
